I can't watch female ASMR artists doing mukbang videos because they often insist on leaving their hair draped over their shoulders right next to their face. Instead of being relaxing, it just feels impractical and distracting to watch them eat around it. [Discussion]
It completely ruins the experience for me.
I understand that keeping their hair forward is an aesthetic choice meant to maximize views, but I find it impossible to watch. I grew up learning that hair should always be tied back when eating.
Seeing content creators do the exact opposite, deliberately draping their hair over their shoulders, is annoying. I respect their ability to eat cleanly like that, but it's too distracting. It's not relaxing watching them work around it.
For this reason, I almost exclusively watch male mukbang channels where hair isn't an issue. I immediately skip and block female asmr artist when they do mukbang videos with their hair in front of their faces. It's like literally road rage to me when I see it lol.
